Archie Manning Was ‘Disappointed’ By All The Hype Surrounding Arch

Well when you pay a kid 25M or more plus endorsements without ever playing a down, it’s gonna come with some expectations. “Poor arch” gmafb you cashed the checks. This is what it is. Transactional. You want it a different way? Give the money back. No, huh? Then kindly stfu.

Unfair? I agree. It's unfair that he had given to him what most have to earn, Archie

The ridiculous NIL deals didn't help.

Poor little rich boy.
Always the victim.

There are lofty expectations for professional athletes. Many high draft picks have withered under the pressure. It was only a matter of time before it became the norm for college professional athletes to be under the same lofty expectations and not perform well as a result.
